D. G. Yuengling & Sons, established in 1829 in Pottsville, Pennsylvania, is America’s oldest operating brewery. Whether you’re a beer drinker or not, a free tour of this historic family business is fascinating. The picture above shows the stained-glass ceiling which was installed in the kettle room to reduce the reflection off the brew kettles; and adorning the walls, murals depict workers from the past. Go for the history and stay for the beer, or go for the beer and stay for the history – either way, it’s great fun!
